Lost Oliver

Short and sweet little puzzle game with some fun chunky Game Boy visuals.

[h1]"My child! My child! I lost my baby!". Rescue little Oliver in this GameBoy styled puzzler.[/h1] I suck at puzzle games. I'm stupid, what can I say! And sokoban puzzles happen to be specially hard for me: limited moves to solve a room... but in [i]Lost Oliver[/i]'s case, it never really happened! Every single level was fun and satisfying (except for the last one, which was tough, but satisfying still). This game is adorable. Just look at it! The nonverbal tale of a kangaroo-like mother looking for her lost cub... sure, kind of sad, but good news: it has a happy ending! There are times in which the game tries to go after unsettling things? Like the weirdish visual and musical effects here and there: they're an odd addition, but they're inoffensive. Quite important to point out too the art style of this game. I mean, original GameBoy aesthetics with Pokémon influences? This is perfect! I adore it. Music is also really nice. Not amazing, and there's a track that sounds pretty dissonant, but fits the mood perfectly... sound balancing could be welcomed here and there though... Do you need anything else? It's 1$. Look at it! If it looks like you may like it, do it! It can't go wro…

A short and fun little puzzle game that provides the perfect amount of challenge without being tedious. Forgettable, but worth the price for the 2 hours you'll get out of it.

I am lucky to have experienced this masterpiece of indie puzzle games. The graphics, sounds, and music are all phenomenal. I can't even begin to express the joy I felt after stumbling upon this game. I seriously recommend spending that dollar on this tricky puzzle game. It's a real gem. I hope the developers keep making these types of games. I have to admit that I got stuck on some later parts of the game, but it was a satisfying challenge to overcome, and I really recommend it for anyone searching for something to spend a bit of brainpower on. I really hope that Oliver learned to be more careful in the woods!

Lost Oliver is a short, heartfelt puzzle game with charming retro visuals and a wordless story that tugs at your emotions. Its clever level design and soothing atmosphere make it a hidden gem well worth the low price.

cute game, got me hooked for 3h :)
